[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Context menu update (#2550)

[Ru Uba]

This patch adds to the context menu that pops up when the user issues a right-click on the Notebook tab a few additional actions.

- Copy filename to clipboard
- Copy file path to clipboard
- Copy file directory to clipboard

This is a feature that already exists in Notepad++ (and I think Atom) and often times when using Geany I miss it. The closest thing I am able to replicate currently in Geany 1.36 (Poliff) is to going to File -> Properties and manually dragging and highlighting the selections. Of course I use a laptop 99.9% with no trackpad (only a trackpoint) of the time so it's not only far too much mouse movement but inaccurate.
